1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 2 Honor your father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) 3 That it may be well with you, and you may live long on the Earth. 4 And, you fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. 5 servants, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with reverence and trembling, in singleness of your innermost mind, as to Christ; 6 Not with eye service, as men pleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the vital essence of the mind; 7 With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men: 8 Knowing that whatever good thing any man does, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. 9 And, you masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with Him. 10 Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in high places. * 13 Therefore take to you the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 Above all, taking the shield of supernatural belief and trust with which you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the utterance of God: 18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 And for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. 21 But that you also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, shall make known to you all things: 22 Whom I have sent to you for the same purpose, that you might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your innermost minds. 23 Peace be to the brothers, and love with supernatural belief and trust from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 24 divine power for righteousness, holiness, and redemption be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen. To the Ephesians written from Rome, by Tychicus.
